Reference: J:269981 Marcucci F, et al., Distinct timing of neurogenesis of ipsilateral and contralateral retinal ganglion cells. J Comp Neurol. 2019 Jan 1;527(1):212-224
Assay type: Immunohistochemistry
MGI Accession ID: MGI:7708045
Gene symbol: Isl2
Gene name: insulin related protein 2 (islet 2)
Antibody: Anti-Islet2
Detection system: Secondary antibody coupled to Alexa Fluor
Results
Specimen 3a: embryonic day 18.5 (more )
Note: Triple labeled: blue - Isl2; red - Isl1 (assay MGI:7708043); green - EdU. EdU injected at E13.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS26: retina ganglion cell layer retinal ganglion cell Present Regionally restricted 3a Expression was detected in contralateral retinal ganglion cells (RGC's) in the ventrotemporal retina. Co-label with Isl1 was seen in postmitotic RGC's. Some contralateral RGC's were co-labeled with EdU when injected at E13.

Specimen 3b: embryonic day 18.5 (more )
Note: Triple labeled: blue - Isl2; red - Isl1 (assay MGI:7708043); green - EdU. EdU injected at E14.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS26: retina ganglion cell layer retinal ganglion cell Present Regionally restricted 3b Expression was detected in contralateral retinal ganglion cells (RGC's) in the ventrotemporal retina. Co-label with Isl1 was seen in postmitotic RGC's. More contralateral RGC's were co-labeled with EdU when injected at E14 than when injected at E13.

Specimen 3c: embryonic day 18.5 (more )
Note: Triple labeled: blue - Isl2; red - Isl1 (assay MGI:7708043); green - EdU. EdU injected at E15.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS26: retina ganglion cell layer retinal ganglion cell Present Regionally restricted 3c Expression was detected in contralateral retinal ganglion cells (RGC's) in the ventrotemporal retina. Co-label with Isl1 was seen in postmitotic RGC's. More contralateral RGC's were co-labeled with EdU when injected at E15 than when injected at E14.

Specimen 3d: embryonic day 18.5 (more )
Note: Triple labeled: blue - Isl2; red - Isl1 (assay MGI:7708043); green - EdU. EdU injected at E16.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS26: retina ganglion cell layer retinal ganglion cell Present Regionally restricted 3d Expression was detected in contralateral retinal ganglion cells (RGC's) in the ventrotemporal retina. Co-label with Isl1 was seen in postmitotic RGC's. The number of contralateral RGC's co-labeled with EdU when injected at E16 sharply decreased.
